Hey guys, just having a small issue with my Shield 9mm that I'm looking for some advice on.
The slide is not locking back after firing the last round. This happens with both of my mags (only have two right now) the 7rd and the 8rd, and with a wide variety of ammo spanning from freedom munitions remans 115, all the way to my Federal HST 147g +Ps.
It doesn't lock back about 80% of the time and I can't seem to figure out a pattern as to when it does or doesn't lock back.
I've done the usual thorough cleaning and changing lube. (my usual is frog lube) and it didn't help.
What should I be looking for? The slide will lock back fine if I manually engage the lock, or when I pull the slide back with an empty mag. I have really big hands so it may be me actually holding the lock down accidentally, but I figured I'd see if the Calguns gurus could give me any other ideas.
Thanks guys!
